A little girl, a little small for her ageA little too slow for the field day raceMomma's waiting at the finish lineAnd wipes the teardrops from her eyesShe says, You did just fine, honey, that's okaySometimes life's just that wayYou're gonna lose the race from time to timeBut you're always gonna find

You can't lose meBet your lifeI am here, and I will always beJust a wish awayWherever you goNo matter how farMy love is where you areYou won't be lost if you believeYou can't lose me

Momma used to say, Girl it won't be long'Til it's time to go out on your ownChase your dreams, find your place in lifeI know you'll do just fineWhen that day finally cameThere were things she needed to, but could not saySo I whispered softly as I wipedThe tears from Momma's eyes

You can't lose meBet your lifeI am here, and I will always beJust a wish awayWherever you goNo matter how farMy love is where you areYou won't be lost if you believeYou can't lose me
